One of the main things I keep harping out because I think it is so important to the advancement of liberty if libertarians are going to even bother running for voting, running for office and endorseing people to run for office. That idea is that political office is power and that politicans must not set the agenda. Even if reformers go their own way reduced the strictness of the platform or pledge by either taking over the Lp or starting a new party, it would be unwise of them if they care anything about liberty for their family to let the politicans set the agenda, to not have standards that the politicans must follow. In other word don't be a fool and trust the politicans that much, this aint some game.--- In [email protected], "Cory Nott" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > There are many different types of Christianity.
